Melanie is a feminine given name derived from the Greek μελανία (melania), "blackness" and that from μέλας (melas), meaning "dark". Borne in its Latin form by two saints: Melania the Elder and her grand-daughter Melania the Younger, the name was introduced to England by the Normans in its French form Melanie. However the name only became common in English usage in the 1930s due to the popularity of Margaret Mitchell's 1936 novel Gone with the Wind and its 1939 filmation, as one of the novel's main characters was named Melanie Hamilton. The name's popularity increased until the 1970s since remaining constant.

Why sleep when the day has been called out by the sun 
From the night 'cause the light's gonna shine on everyone 
Why sleep when the sleep only closes up our eyes 
Why sleep when we can watch the sun a-rise

We were meant to see the beginning of the day 
I believe it was planned to lift us this way 
Take you an apple and take you a song 
And watch a baby day be born 
Take you an apple and take you a song 
Watch a baby day be born 

Quite quite, said I that's all very well to say
But I rose before the dawn to your singing yesterday 
I couldn't see the rising 'cause the dark was in my sky 
I couldn't see the sun 'cause the sun was in my eye

Take you an apple and take you a song 
Watch a baby day be born 
Take you an apple and take you a song 
Watch a baby day be born 

Why sleep, I heard and I followed it today
To the top of the hill where the wind songs play 
And I sing it like I heard it 
Why I heard it who knows why?
Why sleep when we can watch the sun a-rise

We were meant to see the beginning of the day 
I believe it was planned to lift us this way 
Take you an apple and take you a song 
Watch a baby day be born
Take you an apple and take you a song 
Watch a baby day be born 
Take you an apple and take you a song 
Watch a baby day be born 
Take you an apple and take you a song 
Watch a baby day be born 

Take you an apple and take you a song 
Take back an answer to something gone wrong 
Take back some music and take me along 
And watch a baby day be born
Watch a baby day be born
